Preciate the vid bro really helpful and i did not expect vaas/nacho varga to be this good at mechanic work

[@an3ony]

thanks for the vid, appreciate you calling out the actual torx sizes. extremely helpful

[@RBTheMechanic]

No problem!

[@BariumCobaltNitrog3n]

I did this repair today on my 08 Rabbit 5 cylinder 4 door 3 O'clock 2 day 1 new part. I had a rough idle and misfires, low air flow at idle, intake air temp-high signal (?) and the idle now is a lot smoother as well as shifting (auto 6 sp.). The old manifold absolute pressure sensor has two holes for mounting but one screw and one pin on the right. Moving on, I cleaned out the throttle body and tightened some loose valve cover bolts. SFSG 🤨🤞Thanks man.

[@RBTheMechanic]

Oh ok glad u did it urself!!

[@TourettesMobileMechanic]

Ha. I tried the same. Bracket is in the way just a hair. Almost got to it. I’m about to do a lot of maintenance on this VW. Good video.

[@RBTheMechanic]

Yeah thank u they look complicated but fun to work on

[@_spornch]

"take it easy" as you yank it right off 🤣 awesome video tho man appreciate the hard work and it helped get rid of my check engine light

[@RBTheMechanic]

Yeah I changed the sensor and kept getting intake temp code new part be defective

[@paulmaleski5872]

​@RBTheMechanic Did you find out what the issue was my vw is running 5 codes rn....

[@alfredbernal8603]

Here is a tip for you good people dealing with this dreadful p0106 coming back. Check your intake manifold bolts, they may be loose. A loose intake manifold can contribute to a code p0106. Upon doing this, vlean inside the intake manifold, clean out your throttle body, clean out your hoses & check your intake manifold bolts. Throttle body - torx 30 Intake manifold bolts - either a 6mm hex or a torx 40 Clean with throttle/intake cleaner For map sensor, clean with map sensor cleaner..could be bought at walmart. Vlear out your p0206 with an obII reader. Good luck and hope it helps you.

[@RBTheMechanic]

Thank you for tips

[@bjew4218]

Thanks for the vid/tutorial!! I have an exact same model and will definitely try to do this on my own

[@JLouie-]

Quick question, you said the map sensor clamps when connected, when taking it off did you have to use a tool to unclamp or it pulls right off?

[@RBTheMechanic]

Connector u mean? Idk why I said clamp it got 2 bolts and connector and it pops off

[@gregkundtz]

thank you, worked like a charm!

[@RBTheMechanic]

Nice good job!

[@yolandabennett6891]

I greatly appreciate this information

[@RBTheMechanic]

Thank u sir glad video was useful please subscribe

[@abedzantout6980]

Thanks for the video but you mentioned a "Torque" when you were inserting the bolt that holds the sensor in place. What is the required torque there please??? Thanks again.

[@RBTheMechanic]

Didn’t find the torque so I did it softly by hand

[@lrod6923]

Great video, thanks. What would you say a shop would charge for this job?

[@RBTheMechanic]

Labor like $140 unless they diagnose and order part then lot more

[@TourettesMobileMechanic]

Also. You can remove the back upper clamp and get the sensor off. Same car. I just did it to see

[@frankbeanieweenie5891]

Got the check engine light today and got the code read for p0106. I replaced the map sensor about a year ago. Is it possible that it’s that or something else

[@RBTheMechanic]

Prolly bad sensor again

Having trouble finding a replacement torx screw for the map sensor at the intake manifold, it looks like bolt for the throttle body only smaller, online extensive searches come empty and have ordered countless wrong bolts from Fcpeuro, any help part# and size l think it's t20 but I stripped out the head that's why l need new one.

[@RBTheMechanic]

Oh ok match somthing

[@xoxo_dumbgirl2198]

I have a 2008 vw rabbit 2.5L and it's a p0108 code is there a way to fix the high input or do I need to take it to a VW dealership to replace it?

[@RBTheMechanic]

Replace the map sensor!!! Get good quality or maybe buy it from the dealer

[@xoxo_dumbgirl2198]

I need to clean wife's 2010 Golf's throttle body and MAF air flow sensor for the 1st time even though there is no problem. Do you think I will gain some performance back?

[@RBTheMechanic]

No preformance back but it is service that will make the car idle start up better go for it

[@nickstosz6730]

Why did you replace it, what were the symptoms?

[@RBTheMechanic]

It had code for air temp sensor

[@henryhuang4686]

Does 2012 passat has Mass air flow sensor? Or just MAP?

[@RBTheMechanic]

It might have map

[@ricardov8633]

Hey, I have a 2013 I have the same question? so what was it and did it come back? Check engine light.

[@TourettesMobileMechanic]

Hey. I’m bout to do this now and clean throttle body?? Any suggestions?

[@RBTheMechanic]

Which car u got

[@TourettesMobileMechanic]

@@RBTheMechanic oh FYI. I was able to remove it without removing the throttle body. It was not hard. However. It had to come off. 2008 Jetta 2.5 l MK5. I had a break on the pigtail it had damaged the sensor. I finally Found the break and correct it with a ouch pin adapter into the old barbed and walla. Now I’m trying to figure out how the H ima get the this thermostat. Ima assuming ima have to take the whole manifold off it tucked in, I’m just about done. I need it get paid and this has been hell. Over all looking good I just hate the clips. Everyone is just seized, I have broken like 5 but spark plugs are in and it’s done. Many of my coil packs well 3 decide to break at the very end and I had to spend hours fishing the rubber out but I got it done and the others is also my throttle body is so clean you can eat off it. I should have it wrapped up pretty fast tomorrow and I also got the oils leak straight from the vacuum pump gasket, going smooth so just manifold thermostat and the temp sensor and out it alll back together. It should be fixed at the connection. I almost missed it but I caught it after one reassembly and take back alart there it was. Lose TB running against the thin 0.5 yellow white strip wire. That was the major issue. Video should post soon I can’t wait to get it done tomorrow. I’m beat .long day. Just need a couple things and the correct size tripped hex te fit inside the middle whole of the manifold. Should be fun. Jus my about something and I’ll keep you payed I am trying to have done by 4 pm tomorrow, should be no problem. was not easy though. Thanks again.

[@zcam1969]

how much do the MAP senser cost

[@RBTheMechanic]

Like $120 in good quality

[@Rod-oh4sy]

Can this sensor be the problem if my code says air leak in manifold?

[@RBTheMechanic]

I doubt that could be vaccum leak pipe hose or seals

[@Rod-oh4sy]

Why didn’t you just cleaned the old one with proper spray cleaner? Thanks

Nope this shouldn’t be cleaner

I have a code P2188. Would a oily map sensor cause this?

It can but u gotta replace it regardless

If its new and it got oil on it can it be cleaned
